Can Someone look at Pinterest for me?

[mupcycledcouture]

So, I purchased the 2020 book Suzie Zuzek for Lilly Pulitzer. It has names for tons of the early fabrics. 

So I went to Pinterest to add a bunch and I noticed that on my old pins, you cant see the names of the prints any longer. It used to be when I pinned something it would allow me to type in what I wanted to name that pin and I would put the fabric name. Now all it shows is the name of the original source. For instance is if was an Ebay listing, it would show something to do with Ebay and not the print name. 

Not sure when this changed, I havent done much on that account for a long time since I am no longer selling. But I do get over 1,500 views a month, so I know they are being used. 

Anyhow, can someone look at my page and tell me what you see? 

This is the latest pin I just put up. I ended up putting the facbric name in the comments. Hoping people can see that. 

 

This is what I was talking about seeing only the Etsy or Ebay wording. 

I really hope I dont lose all my work.

This one is a good example. It shows me notes to me: cats and coons

Can you all see the notes to me? I dont think so.

I don't see Cats and Coons. I see a blogspot address, Vintage Lilly Pulitzer Fabric prints and this: I've been trying to organize my vintage Lilly fabric. I work with it a lot so it's kind of a constant chore on my list of things-to-do. It ...

The first one, I see your etsy link and this verbiage: Cats, ferns and flowers… what could be better? Doing it up with an artistic hand in day-glow orange on crisp cotton fabric, that's what. This snappy cotton is crisp as new. Very bright white… etc.

It all looks very nice and clean.

Thanks for checking. I am not sure what they did, but any comment I had on my previous pins (with the print names) are gone. I am going through and trying to update each board, but how frustrating.

I find Pinterest very frustrating in general. I can't see the name of the print (Cats & Coons) but it could be because I don't know what I'm doing.

The first one shows this after clicking on the "1 Comment" note:
"Upcycled Couture 1d
J - J by Zuzek"

When I click on the Upcycled Couture, it takes me to your site, and I see the name of the print written across the fabrics shown. I think you used to have them by category, but I don't see that now. I also don't know if all the prints are showing up as it only took 10 clicks (equal to a full page) to get to the end of them.

ETA, I went back to it and figured out that if I switch from "created" to "saved" just under your heading, I can see the categories. I found the cat prints and looked for the first one above and see the "Vintage Fabric Yardage..." info under the print and your comment with the J-J by Zuzek comment.

I clicked on the black and white cat print, and it takes me to the Pinterest page that has a link to the original post at pulitzerprints.tumblr.com, but the link takes you to a Tumblr page that says "There's nothing here. Whatever you were looking for doesn't currently exist at this address. Unless you were looking for this error page, in which case: Congrats! You totally found it."  You don't have a comment on that one yet.

And I agree with Emerald, I find Pinterest very frustrating as well. I do think there was a change a couple of years ago, because I started getting error messages on my links to my items once it had sold. I have been putting it in my notes when I have my items pinned to Pinterest so I can take it down from there when something sells (but I still miss doing it often).

No, I can not see any notes to you.  The page has a link to looking4lilly.blogspot.com with a note at the bottom that "Upcycled Couture saved to Lilly Pulitzer Cat Prints".

I just made huge changes over there. I sorted all LP prints into a section and all LeSportsac into a section.

I will be slowly adding the names of prints to the images, so for a while you will see some like that and some the old way. I have over 2,000 LP pins alone, so it will be a huge job. I am just sick at all the names I have lost.

Somany; that created/saved thing is SO frustrating. Ugh.

Hate that you have to go to all that work but a big thanks for doing it as it has been very helpful.

[mupcycledcouture]

I haven't touched that account in about a year. But I dont want to take it down either because it gets 1,500+ visits a month.

I am seeing this is a blessing in disguise as I am finding print names I didn't have. The loss is there, but minimal with some elbow grease.
